Possibly due to that if people in the CFS hadn't claimed their own seat when they first went on sale, when then anyone could buy a ticket, I'm guessing that tickets weren't available in the CFS. Hope that makes sense! When tickets first went on sale our CFS tickets had been pre-assigned to us. I di...

But to get to the Park View you’ll now have to navigate the Gate of Death and the Kerb precipice.

What's your estimate on how long it will take for the worst of the crushing to have eased off after the final whistle vs. the additional time to walk round to the gate with chronically infirm knees?

But to be honest this issue is one of convenience, the bigger concern is that of safety. Sit in your seat for 5 minutes after the game and soak up the post match fan experience. By that time the crowds will have shrunk back to about the same levels as those previously trying to get up Ormerod yard ...

It's about the same distance from the centre of the longside to Belvedere road as it is to the Park View.

I haven't had any email for mine or my sons season ticket yet for cricketfield stand? I have been on the club website & our 2 tickets are there for the Sunderland game, but NO option to download only allows to forward or sell on the ticket exchange. Should I be worried? Forward them to each other!!

We already know their reaction to moving thousands of ST holders without consultation was ‘positive’. Our group of 3 have been moved without consultation and looking at the vision for the CFS, are all positive about the plans, so the FAB has represented us well. Is the position of the ISA to oppose...

I’ve no idea: never been in it in my life, nor have my parents. We just live a little further on so have seen many frequenters over the years, heading in.

It's been decorated and the seats have new covers. Think they bought some new dominoes too a few years back.

None of them wealthy as far as i know...just a community who got together to save their local....they just did the same with a cafe close by.

It would be an odd decision to send a player out to talk about which fixtures he's looking to play in next season if he wasn't going to play next season.

Until someone comes up with a solution, social media will remain a cesspit that allows idiots to say pretty much anything they want with anonymity. It’s not a nice place.

2 points you are missing 2/3rds of that income is from sponsorship/and brand with commitment to social media and match day .

I would suggest viewing figures of all 'live' TV programmes have dropped significantly in the last 20 years, regardless of the quality of their content.

They have but Dr Who’s decline, particularly the latest series is way beyond the average.

In his first stint Davies wrote episodes around the Dr Who character and occasionally got 13 million viewers. Now he writes stories that promote his own social a political views that feature Dr. Who and he’s occasionally getting as few as 1.5 million. He’s also tinkering with the lore far more this ...

Let’s be honest. CJ was incredible and we are a little bit gutted. He owes us nothing.

And what if you’re wrong about the situation? Still a good message?

Analysing the song again in a bit more detail, I don't think they care.

Sproggy

I don’t want to inflame an already tense situation but some of the people who sang this cruel and heartless song which has clearly upset so many of our proper fans also went down for a beer before half time and then left the game early.

Yeah, a bit of a silly statement from me🤣 I stand by the fact that he shouldn't be found guilty unless it can be proved beyond reasonable doubt Yep.

>It shouldn't be for the FA to play judge and jury.

Given the FA have a judicial framework to deal with disciplinary matters, it probably should.

They generally get good prices on EBay. Or at least look there before you sell them to get an idea of what they are worth.

It’s an awful game. Arsenal scored from a cross but didn’t get the hint and have tried to pass the ball into the net for the rest of the game. Sideways, backwards, rinse, repeat. Ipswich have hardly had the ball but on the rare occasions they have got forward, they would rather “recycle” back to the...

Seemed happy to blow up for the softest of fouls for them. Yet another ref that seemed happy that no football of note could be played after 70 minutes due to the play acting, time wasting and cheating.

Sproggy

They had 3 absolute sitters in the 2nd half. The subs were made to try and shore things up a bit but we could have been 3-1 down before any of them were made.

Happy to come away with a point, just need to win on Tuesday.

We’re still giving the ball away too often in our own half trying to play out.

It would be heaving if England lost. What you normally get is people saying they would rather watch paint dry, but watched the game. People comment when there's something to comment on. Last night we played quite well with a reasonably well balanced formation against the team ranked 40th in the wor...

Yep, pretty good that, given a lot of first choice players dropped Carsley in it this week.

Why her, she can’t even pronounce “footballer” correctly, she says it in a quick way and it sounds as though she misses the “a” out, it comes across as footbuller.

After she killed off Football Focus, surely not...?

Sproggy

Thought we looked pretty good away at a team likely to finish in the top 6.

Scored a good goal, hit the post, had 2 or 3 other excellent chances and restricted them to scraps.

Just to check my understanding - it lost the name "Gawthorpe" under the previous ownership but that was OK because despite being "part of our history" Barnfield paid for the sponsorship and we were all OK with that.

It doesn't matter what it is. It could be 50 pound notes being dropped out of a helicopter, if it was suggested by Alan Pace, the usual suspects on here would use it as something to have a go at the club about.
